Life is an Ongoing Lesson.

Life is an ongoing lesson.

How many times have we heard that, or some kind of a similar comment, and thought nothing about it? Of course, Life is an ongoing lesson right? That comment isn't anything profound, isn't anything all that amazing to hear, it's rather common sense.

While it's true the comment isn't spectacular, the results from acknowledging it, or ignoring it, are.

Many times we are faced with a situation, which can have either amazing or disastrous effects from our choice. We are never, really blindly faced with such a situation, it doesn't , one day jump from a shadow and surprise us. The situation is one that slowly, casually approached us, and we were given many hints, many warning signs, and whether we paid attention or ignored the hints was entirely our own doing.

The first time, should be the only time, but, for many of us, it's not. We fail to pay attention to the warning signs, and so we tend to live and relive these life lesson's over and over. I recently have encountered one of these situations, and yes I saw it coming, and try as I might, the choices I made were always the wrong choices. And the results, are painful to say the least.

So what can we do, as intelligent beings to avoid making these wrong choices? To watch for these lessons, and make the right choices? That's difficult to say, as it's not till the choices are made, that you discover if they were the right ones, or the wrong ones. Then you are left, trying to salvage the situation, trying to convince yourself you can pull it from the flames.

Sometimes you do, sometimes you don't; but either way, you should remember the lesson that you learn, ongoing or not, and do what you can, to prevent it from repeating.

i wouldn't know about dreams since all i have ever had are nightmares'

wanna know what happens when i lose the one thing i desire and give up the world around me?i get the world back.... what remains is what was always there to begin with within a giventime to each aware mind, what would seem tangible and solid to our perception

each life begins at a different time so all our clocks are different

though all is changing, always, chaos as a constant

i would still rather be at peace and have the world with the one thing i desire

everything is geared to fail basically though some people never see that in their dying life

like you say everything just dies

but it still begins again

when we die we are like a tiny puzzle that get's shredded apart and stored away into an earthly shelf called the ground

the data will be collected in time

do you know what happens to the thing we call a spirit or a soul after we die?

i don't

though you and i don't exactly believe in souls

i have a good idea of how things evolve in this infinite process as do many

there lies within infinite possibility where it is deemed that nothing could be purely duplicated

from the infinite possibility it can and is

this has already happened and we are already gone.... this is just a fading dream

more like a memory

goals can be related to our so called dreams. the way you word it they are one in the same. so you contradicted yourself.

everyone could wake up from a good dream and hope for it to come to fruition

but who honestly clings onto dreams like that?

you wake up and say hey that was a good dream but even retards can differentiate dreams and reality, even schizophrenics do and then just continue on with their day

if you have a dream worth holding on to keep it

the only times i had normal dreams was when i was a kid and i can't remember any of them

except for one

is that so profound to say that dreams die, when everything dies?

sounds like you are just pessimistic..and why not be? and why be happy?..tell me what

difference

does it make

to you whether someone follows their dream ( goal ) or not

like we live, sometimes dreams live to. but they die out in time as well

they live with us and they die with us. whether you let go or hold onto a dream makes little

difference

differences of the bluntly categorized parallel variables that could exist in one who simply does have a dream that warms their heart, to one who doesn't...versa

so they say life is like a dream and why not? why shouldn't it be. our dreams are just a dream within a dream. if everyone just gave up on dreams then they would be like

you and me.... and i disagree i don't think people should have to be like you and me
